Gábor Szunyogh: BEND / Solo piano · Contemporary jazz ⚿

V jedru programa je preprosta misel: ista resničnost v vsakem od nas pusti nekoliko drugačen odtis. Spomin, razpoloženje ali bežna podoba lahko v glasbi dobi novo razmerje, drugo težo, včasih celo povsem nov pomen. Pri Szunyoghu se zato mirni, skoraj zamišljeni odseki srečujejo z bluesovsko težo, jazzovsko igrivostjo in trenutki, ki zvenijo skoraj filmsko. Budimpeštanski pianist in skladatelj ustvarja že več kot petindvajset let. Igral je v klubih iF Jazz Café in Picasso Point, z duetom Weekend Vikings pa tudi na A38 Ship. Njegov album BEND je letos med novimi izdajami predstavil tudi britanski Jazz Journal. V Prulčku bo teh štirinajst skladb dobilo novo obliko – takšno, kot jo lahko dobijo le v prostoru, kjer se glasba res posluša.

Fourteen original compositions draw on jazz, blues, classical music and psychedelia, while the written material always leaves room for improvisation, surprise and sudden changes of direction. At the heart of the programme is a simple idea: the same reality leaves a different trace in each of us. A memory, a mood or a fleeting image can take on a new shape in music, a different weight, sometimes even a different meaning. In Szunyogh’s playing, calm, reflective passages sit alongside the weight of the blues, the playfulness of jazz and moments that feel almost cinematic. The Budapest-based pianist and composer has been writing and performing for more than twenty-five years. He has appeared at venues including iF Jazz Café and Picasso Point, as well as A38 Ship with his duo Weekend Vikings. His album BEND was also featured among the new releases in the British magazine Jazz Journal this year. At Prulček, these fourteen pieces will take on a new form — the kind that can only emerge in a room where people are really listening.
